as we likes to remind us, education is an economic issue because the countries that out-educate us today will out-compete us tomorrow, and right now we're 17th in science and 25th in math. and it's a national security issue because other countries are training the best engineers and scientists. and it's a civil rights issue because students of color receive a sub par education. and drop out at twice the rate as white students. fundamentally, i believe it's a moral issue. there's nothing more important than how we raise and educate our children. president obama has initiated groundbreaking reforms to support high quality teaching, reward innovation, expand early childhood education and make college more affordable. he's gotten banks out of the student loan business and given a tuition tax break to middle class families. so for me, that's huge. and for the 1.1 million students in new york city alone. it's made a tremendous difference. he's also laid the groundwork for an economy that's built to last and that's not an easy job. he brought us back from the brink of a great depression, saved
